Part of why I never plan on having kids. Hes rich, so he could actually afford them, but I would be in the red for life if I had kids.

Kay? Some people know that they don't want to be parents. Why does it matter?

Anyone who doesn't want kids shouldn't be shamed into getting kids.

Why does any thoughts need to be had about this?

Why? There shouldn't be any shame for whatever reason you don't want to be a parent, and people shouldn't be considered selfish for not wanting to be a parent.

That said, this is always at the back of my mind:

I agree. I don't want a kid, my partner does and keeps going on to me about having one but I'd resent and hate any kid I'd have so I ain't having one.

I don't think I'd financially be able to do it well, and wouldn't want to give a kid a sub-par experience. So for the moment, and likely for the foreseeable future, not super interested.

Judging people for not wanting kids is not far off from being pro-life imo

Whats the obsession with wanting to force kids on people??

People seem to overlook this. Objectively, Kids have gone from being a useful asset in the agriculture days, to a money sink these days.

kids are rad and being a parent is prolly the most fulfilling/unique life experience you can have
mid 30s people who are financially/mentally viable for children but call peers that are parents "breeders" and remain childless for fear of how it would affect their "social" life reek of someone desperately clinging on to their 20s tbqh

I'd like to think it's a fringe group of people. But I can confidently say it's not just a bunch of virgins spouting this.

There seems to be this hard push from certain types of people for wanting to force andor shame people into having kids they don't necessarily want.

Personally I don't think the world needs more unwanted children. If you want a kid, have one because you want one. If you don't, don't let someone shame you into getting kids you don't even want. The world will continue on with or without that unwanted unborn child.

I don't see any issue with that. If he ends up with a kid anyway and tries to ditch it for that (or really, any) reason, he's a (redacted), but not wanting them and therefore not having any is fine no matter how dumb anyone thinks the reason is - and for the record I agree with his reason.

If he (or anyone else) doesn't want kids then you do you. No one should shame them for their choice to not have kids. Same goes the other direction too, shaming people for having kids and calling them "breeders" and the like is just as cringey as people calling childless people selfish.

It's also better to not have and want than have and not want.

Basically from a prisoner's dilemma POV not having any children is the safest option.

Yeah if my life had played out differently, I think I couldve seen having kids. But like I feel like I barely have enough time for myself as it is, Ive been working with customers for the almost twenty years Ive started working (which is essentially like taking care of little kids) and I just have absolutely no patience left. Thats not an acceptable condition to have a kid under.

Plus I have trouble sleeping. If I was one of those people who could wake up and get right back to sleep, it would be one thing.

If I could be a stay at home dad, then Id consider having kids but having to deal with a kid on top of dealing with work? F*** that lol idk how people do it.

Pretty much why i'll never do it.

I only got one life, and fucking 20+ years of that up when i can do whatever the hell i want would just make me resent them eventually.

Not everyone is built to do it, and people need to realize that's okay. In my case too much of a selfish prick. helped in foster care, and seen what bad parents do to kids.

Nobody should be judged for not wanting kids.

Maybe we could judge ourselves though.

I mean not having kids would feel like a massive letdown to my ancestors. Obviously we will never know, but its something I kept thinking about for a long time. They survived plagues and various diseases that had no cures or treatment. They probably had to suffer through low crop yields, unsuccessful hunts and other famine-related periods. Probably had to fight or run away from bandits who would literally cut your throat over pieces of bread or salted meat, and maybe even from Sabre tooth cats and wolves, if you go back far enough. And of course it mustve been difficult to worry about all that and then look for a mate.

Now we have an abundance of food available on practically every street, medicine isnt perfect but its better than its ever been and sex is casually available. But we wont have kids because it does not sound fun. For sure, its a personal choice and everybody has that right to decide either way. I just cant shake that feeling that it would be a letdown for all that your bloodline had to go through up until this point in time.

They aren't around anymore - don't guilt trip youselves over possible savages who could have partook in the atrocities you speak of.

If you wanna have peace of mind fuck those ancestors. Don't owe them shit as they got their turn.

Not being a jerk and putting down your ancestry for the record.

Is it like a project watching them grow, and mirror your morals? When i think like that i see the appeal,but still deterred due to time invested.

Yeah. You do love them with your whole heart so it's rewarding to just see them grow and learn.

But I have zero free time now so goodbye hobbies. Definitely less time for actual fun.

I was raised by a narcissist, so YMMV. At least have enough sense to realize i would resent a kid. No child deserves that. Don't gaslight people who are doing the mature thing because some aren't built.
